Oil and Gas Industry Goes Mobile

In a recent survey conducted by Oil and Gas IQ, of CIOs in the oil and gas industry, mobile technology was number 2 of the top ten priorities, and 55% of respondents felt it would greatly enhance their operations, however only 16% have employed a mobility strategy so far.

Nevertheless, mobile oil and gas applications are transforming the industry and having a great impact on the business today.

More and more oil and gas companies today are tending to use mobile apps. It has always been a challenge to manage both offshore and onshore operations in a competitive, constantly changing and heavily regulated environment which is what the oil and gas industry is. Mobile applications not only help to eliminate these challenges, but also contribute to a better productivity, safety and operational performance.

Here is a number of benefits companies get from utilizing the oil and gas field apps:

– Reduce cycle time and costs – mobile apps provide an easy and fast way of capturing, processing, storing and accessing data. This is essential for operations, inspections, safety procedures, maintenance and repair processes. Reducing cycle time, in its turn, leads to reducing costs and saving money.

– Improve the flow of information – giving an easy access to company information and sharing it among employees increases work efficiency and improves data accuracy.

– Provide safe work places – conducting regular safety inspections that cover HSE managements, quality control, emergency preparedness etc. helps to improve the overall safety performance and ensure the safety of employees working in the field.

– Improve customer service – interacting with customers in the other essential feature that mobile apps offer. Placing orders, issuing invoices, collecting feedback on products and services enhance customer experience and improve customer satisfaction.
